Description
Add support for reverse dynamic forwarding. In this mode, ssh will act as a SOCKS4/5 proxy and forward connections to destinations requested by the remote SOCKS client.

Is it possible with current SSH.NET version?

Research direction
Start with the ForwardedPortRemote API and compare its capabilities with the reverse dynamic forwarding described in the linked OpenSSH 7.6 release notes. Determine the required SOCKS4/5 remote-client behavior and how it fits SSH.NET's existing forwarding model. Done means establishing whether this forwarding mode can be supported and defining the scope of the required API and tests.
